Hello, my name is Yasmine Kara, I live in Paris but am deeply affected by what our fellow brothers and sisters in Palestine have to go through everyday. I have been in contact with my friend, Ibrahim Mohammed Ibrahim Abed, who is a young boy from Gaza, desperately trying to save his family from the horrors of war.

Donations will be directly wired to Ibrahim's account in Palestine and will help provide desperately needed first necessities for him and his family.

Here is his message :

" Hello. I am writing this letter from within the Gaza Strip. I am your friend Ibrahim Abd. My family and I were also victims of the ongoing bombardment of the Gaza Strip. Within a few weeks, we saw our entire lives destroyed, and now we can no longer live here.

My message to the world.

Dear world,

The Israeli war and bombing have affected everyone so much that there is no longer a safe place. Friends and family were bombed and killed. Approximately 70% of homes in the Gaza Strip have been destroyed, and the Israeli occupation army signals the start of a ground invasion of the last two safe areas in the Gaza Strip. I happen to live in one of these two areas, specifically the city of Deir al-Balah, which is bombed by the Israeli occupation army from land, air and sea. In the midst of the Israeli destruction and geographical genocide we have suffered, which has been broadcast on television to the world, I can no longer continue to live."
